    You may find it useless. That's your opinion. However, to talk about your original point, I have rarely (if ever) seen anything that had to be done in the command line. People merely give instructions for doing things in the command line because it is easier to make your directions specific since all you need is a line of text. The command line is also MUCH faster to use than a graphical interface, which is why I personally use it.

    Someone "lost" something "annoying", but it surely wasn't case sensitivity. My signature is a clue.

    what one person defines as right and wrong is no more justified than what someone else who believes differently says is right and wrong.

    Please tell me you see the irony in this! You say that what one person defines as right and wrong is no more justified than others, and yet, earlier on, you claim that Catholics are not Christians because they don't believe the same thing you do and that Catholics are wrong. I hereby nominate you for the Hypocrite of the Year award!

    Uhhh... that post of his was on April Fools. So as an April Fools joke he tricked someone into thinking he had a girlfriend, a whole year ago, and so now he has no credibility?

  15. Re:The bottom line is this on Citizen Photographers v. The Police? · · Score: 1

    Being that white people are the majority of the electorate, official conduct on the part of elected officials (police chiefs, city councilmen, etc) and their subordinates isn't racism when it's directed against white people.

    It's abusive, it's corrupt, it's dishonerable but it's not racism.


    That's one of the most empty-headed things I've seen in awhile. So if a black police officer pulled me over for "DWW" (to modify a term you used), it's not racism since you say most officers are white? Thank you for that astoundingly insightful comment. I never knew.

    Gates has reigned at the top of Microsoft like some kind of anti-Christ for 25 years. He has publicly revelled in using Microsoft as a blunt instrument of power. Microsoft's sordid history of slimy tactics and businness transgressions is directly attributable to him. Do you remember his performance at the antitrust trial? If you are stuck on this, one wonders if you are capable of making a judgement on anything at all.

    Speaking of judgement, I fixed your typos.

    He said, and I quote, this: "There is one religion which has never had a leader call for killing people in the name of it: non-Catholic, non-Protestant Christianity. This is the same Christianity that spawned Amish, Hudderites, Mennonites, Ana-Baptists, and modern day Baptists. None of these groups were ever part of the catholic church, or any of it's offspring (the protestant churches). I also am not aware of Jews ever attacking and killing in the name of their religion, although being the only ethnic group that is identified solely with its religious heritage it becomes difficult sometimes. I don't think the current conflict in Israel has anything to do with trying to force Judaism on the Palestinian people - quite the opposite."

    I listed Baptists and Jews. Now, I will repost what he said, and bold Baptists and Jews for you, so you don't have to read it (which you obviously never did to begin with).

    Never once did I say that every person in those religion kills people. I was specifically referencing where the parent of my reply said that those religions has never killed anybody in the name of religion. Then maybe you would not make such a fool of yourself.

    That certainly sounds like someone "claiming nobody has ever killed for their relegion."

    I am amazed you have never heard of Fred Phelps (a Baptist), but here he is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Phelps
    While he has never been convicted of killing people (there is much suspicion), he shot a dog and is rumored to have beaten his wife, and is happy that U.S. soldiers die in Iraq because "god hates faggots" and America is apparently a nation of "faggots".

    I am done rambling now, but the point being, your views on religion are extremely biased and bigoted, and you should actually do research before you post something as idiotic and full of errors as this post was.
